A professional detailing service protects your vehicle by using premium products such as waxes, coatings and even interior coatings. This prevents your car's paint from fading pre mature paint/ clear coat failure and aging. Your vehicle goes through the toughest elements such as Salt, Dirt, Spills, UV Rays and everyday wear, and detailing uses the proper products and techniques to remove these effectively and safely.

Any well maintained vehicle shows a representation of how that vehicle was treated throughout its ownership, and that is how much it was or wasn’t neglected. Any car that is maintained throughout its ownership will not only sell quicker, but will have a higher resale value as it is more desirable by the new buyer as the mileage becomes just a number and the condition of the car becomes a time capsule.

Not only is driving a clean, freshly detailed car simply more enjoyable but, avoiding auto detailing simply because of the cost can actually cost more in the long run as reconditioning and restoration is much more costly than preventative maintenance and regular care.

The way we look at it is every season provides a different challenge so we recommend every 3-4 months on average to maintain your vehicle like new condition for years to come. But we have exclusive maintenance offers for those who want subscription services. High-mileage vehicles or those exposed to harsh conditions (daily commuters) may benefit from more frequent service.

This entirely depends on the task at hand meaning the service being provided, conditions of the vehicle and the vehicle make and model all play a role. On average a detail takes anywhere from 2-5 Hours as we focus on quality.

Exterior washing, decontaminating the paint chemically and with the use of a clay bar removes bonded contaminants that can damage paint over time. Polishing/Paint correction helps correct minor scratches and swirl marks, while wax, sealants, or ceramic coatings add a protective layer. This protection shields your paint from UV rays, water spots when washing, and environmental contaminants, reducing fading and oxidation.

Auto detailing is especially important in the San Francisco Bay Area due to; tree sap from pine trees and redwoods, coastal fog and moisture that can affect paint and trim, strong UV exposure that causes fading and oxidation, urban pollution and brake dust buildup/industrial fallout, highway driving and salt air near the coast. Regular detailing helps protect your vehicle from these elements and keeps it looking its best year-round.

Ceramic coating is a polymer nano-coating that is applied in a liquid form and once exposed to oxygen it hardens. Once on your paint, this provides a highly durable high gloss protective barrier that repels water, pollen, dirt, and other debris that makes it easier to clean and maintain a like new appearance for years in the bay area.
